in the post hand check post hard foul era/ no dominate 7 foot rim protection era, Kobe still winds up settling for long jumpers more often than not. Even though it's easier now than ever to get to the basket. If Kobe played in the late 80s and early 90s he'd logically have even An even lower fg% by having even less opportunities for high % baskets. People like laimbeer and rodman basically clotheslining nikkas and mutumbos Robinsons and Hakeem's getting alltime highs in blocks for the nikkas who actually get past the perimeter d.
What Jordan did was more impressive considering it would've been easier to eat off 3s. Tough hard baskets and still averaged more than Kobe

If you adjust for inflation, Jordan actually averaged 43 ppg. Then you have to account for the fact the 1980's was the worst decade in american history in terms of car design and production, Jordan's accomplishments trump even those of Ghengis Khan.

IT'S CALLED ZONE DEFENSE...IT GIVES U THE JUMPER, BECAUSE DEFENSES ARE ABLE TO CROWD THE PAINT, UNLIKE BACK IN THE DAYS. ZONE DEFENSE WAS NOT ALLOWED IN JORDAN'S DAY.

PERIMETER D WASNT AS GOOD EITHER IN THE 80S....THE TOUGHEST DEFENSE WAS PRIMARILY PLAYED IN THE PAINT. AND CONSIDERING KOBE AND JORDAN ARE PERIMETER PLAYERS, THAT WOULD MAKE IT EASIER ON THEM, NOT HARDER.

Zone defense is not used every minute of every game. You act like they play zone for 48 minutes every night.
Some coaches don't even use it. Man to man is far more common.

No point in actually debating. This autistic fool is trying to argue Kobe over Jordan. An average of 5 fewer points a game while shooting 5% worse from the field, 4 fewer league MVP awards, and one fewer title with 4 fewer finals MVP awards with 5 different finals series all worse than Michael's worst dead that argument.

IM TALKIN PRIME FOR PRIME, NOT CAREERS RETARD....KOBE SPENT YEARS OF HIS PRIME PLAYIN WIT SMUSH PARKER AND KWAME BROWN, WHILE MJ HAD THE LUXURY OF PLAYIN WITH SCOTTIE AND PHIL THROUGHOUT HIS ENTIRE PRIME. KOBES AVERAGES ARE ALSO SKEWED BY THE FACT THAT HE CAME OUTA HIGH SCHOOL AND WASNT HANDED THE KEYS TO THE FRANCHISE RIGHT OFF THE BAT. YOU SUCK DICC AT DEBATING, STICK TO SNITCHING SON.

JUST THE FACT THAT IT EXISTS... BECAUSE OF THE ZONE DEFENSE RULES, THERES NO SUCH THING AS ILLEGAL DEFENSE LIKE THERE WAS BACK IN THE DAY.....SO U DONT HAVE TO IMPLEMENT A ZONE DEFENSE TO CROWD AN AREA, LIKE EVERY TEAM DOES WHEN FACING A PLAYER LIKE KOBE NOWADAYS. U COULD BE PLAYING MAN-TO-MAN AND STILL UTILIZING THE ZONE DEFENSE RULES.

Normally I'd insult you but since you're a CBO fan, I'll give you some slack

CBO might be the only rapper that murdered Tupac on his own shyt :ohhh: (twice!) (on the same album!)

Kurupt outshined Pac on Got My Mind Made Up and Initiated (Fatal outshined Pac on initiated too)



oh and Shaggy 2 Dope outshined Pac on an unreleased song

Jordan just did it at a much higher percentage :sas1:


A percentage that will only increase when Kobe treats us to a 40.5% shooting from the field this season.

And everyone steals moves, so I can't knock that. But Kobe sharked Jordan's whole existence (minus 4 Finals MVPs, and 8 scoring titles)

from the way he walked and talked and his whole style. He's definitely the closest to Jordan, but still an inferior copy nonetheless.
